Office of Sponsored Programs and Research Administration

Welcome to the Office of Sponsored Programs and Research Administration. This office includes our on-campus Research Foundation (RF) staff as well as our pre-award personnel who may assist with identifying funding opportunities or submitting grant applications. The staff of this department are here to assist any faculty or staff who are thinking about submitting a grant application or who have already been awarded research grants and sponsored program contracts through the RF. We will assist you with all RF personnel appointments, benefit information, purchase and travel requisitions, accounts payable matters, budget revisions and final reporting requirements

This webpage provides access to helpful information about the grant process on campus, RF and SUNY policies and procedures, as well as other key information for Principal Investigators.

To ensure that sponsored programs run smoothly, please take note of the following:

• All personnel appointment forms should be completed and submitted to the campus RF office before the employee begins working. Project Directors should make sure that funds are received and the grant is up on the system before appointing employees.
  
  
• All expenditures and encumbrances should be reviewed for accuracy and any errors should be reported immediately.
  
  
• All requests for performance reports which require financial data should be forwarded to Sponsored Programs for completion.
  
  
• All who are interested in submitting a grant application should refer to the grant submission process
